​BOULDER, Colo. — Nov. 8th, 2016 — Morphis, an application modernization software company
based in Portugal with offices in the U.S., U.K., Spain and Brazil, announced
today the completion of a significant modernization project with Ellucian, the leading
global provider of higher education software and services.

The project, which included
the migration of over 4,000 pages from Oracle Forms to Java, specifically aimed
to transform the user experience, accessibility, and extensibility for Banner® by Ellucian, the world’s leading higher education ERP
(Enterprise Resource Planning) system, which serves 1600 institutions across 40
countries.

“Banner® is the most feature-rich, widely adopted
Student Information System (SIS) in the world of higher education. Ellucian has
transformed the entire system, including administrative functions, self-service
functions, integration capability, and cloud deployment options. We trusted
Morphis to assist us in the complete transformation of the user experience for
administrative users,” said Kari
Branjord, senior vice president, strategy and product management, ERP at
Ellucian. “While we looked at several, there wasn't another vendor that could
execute with the same level of proficiency as Morphis. Their technology was vastly superior to anyone
else we considered.”

The engagement, which began
in October 2014, focused not only on a complete renewal of the user experience,
but also strengthened one of Ellucian’s major differentiators in the market—extensibility—allowing
their clients to manage their Banner®
solution to ensure adherence to their unique academic policies and requirements,
without having to modify the underlying source code.

“We are the only vendor serving
higher education that gives our customer institutions a viable, strong, and
compelling path to the cloud while preserving the investments they've made,”
said Branjord. “We enable colleges
and universities to utilize their resources more effectively by providing a
path to meet the unique requirements of the institution without modifying the
system, all made possible by adopting the next generation of Banner®.”

“Completing a project
of this magnitude is great validation that our technology, processes, and
people are the best in the industry,” said Luis Andrade, CEO, Morphis
Technologies. “The work we did with Ellucian is an example of the way we
fulfill our mission; we are proud of the contribution we’ve been able to make
to Banner®.”​
